| * ScottL is reading backscroll | 00:26 | |
| ScottL | ckontros, i checked in on the meeting as it happened and yes, i have some seed work that i would like to do to also clean up some things | 00:30 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottL | ckontros, how would you like for me to be involved? | 00:30 |
| ScottL | ckontros, not trying to obfuscate, but i just want to understand the expectations | 00:38 |
| ScottL | :) | 00:38 |
| * saidinesh5 waves at ScottL from his Ubuntu Studio :P | 00:42 | |
| ScottL | lol, hi saidinesh5 | 00:43 |
| saidinesh5 | good mornin? :) | 00:43 |
| saidinesh5 | ScottL: its the same thing as when i tried it a couple of years ago.. | 00:45 |
| * persia idly wonders why consistency is no longer widely considered a positive attribute | 00:45 | |
| saidinesh5 | persia: it isnt?? | 00:46 |
| saidinesh5 | :O | 00:46 |
| persia | Oh, you mean that in a good way? Sorry. I'm oversensitive I suppose. | 00:46 |
| saidinesh5 | i thought consistency is like at the core of any good design | 00:47 |
| saidinesh5 | ScottL: btw. doesn't ubuntu studio bundle compiz by default ? or is it my NVIDIA drivers? | 00:48 |
| * saidinesh5 might not have "I m a designer guy" written on his head though | 00:48 | |
| persia | saidinesh5: consistency over elements is not always considered in the same was as consistency over time, but we digress :) | 00:49 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah okay!! | 00:50 |
| saidinesh5 | well back then it was a hugeee disappointment for me | 00:50 |
| * saidinesh5 was totally new to linux back then though | 00:50 | |
| saidinesh5 | so i was expecting different things i guess | 00:50 |
| ckontros | ScottL: No. I don't need to be involved now. I do however want to look at the *-desktop depends for the Xubuntu conversion at some point and rearrange things. I think Il be further on our new *-settings package this weekend. | 00:57 |
| ScottL | saidinesh5, i think you will find the next release will be quite different, but in a good way | 01:32 |
| saidinesh5 | naice ScottL :D | 01:33 |
| saidinesh5 | also i was wondering where could i find some roadmap or something if i can contribute to anything | 01:33 |
| persia | saidinesh5, Well, what sort of thing do you like to do? | 01:51 |
| saidinesh5 | dunno persia.. will look at what can be done | 01:54 |
| saidinesh5 | and then will decide | 01:54 |
| saidinesh5 | m fair enough with writing code .... like can use Qt to make little apps that do what i want them to do | 01:54 |
| persia | Well, some areas that always benefit from people: reviewing/replicating/investigating bugs, documenting how to accomplish common tasks with the default software selections, improving integration support between applications in the default software selection, regular testing and reporting of any discovered issues, (and lots more) | 01:55 |
| persia | Well, if you're good at writing code, we've heaps of bugs that need fixing. We generally coordinate with the Debian Multimedia team to get patches we prepare applied to the applications we select. | 01:56 |
| persia | Just pick any application installed by default, visit https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/${PACKAGE}/+bugs | 01:57 |
| saidinesh5 | oh cool: looking into it | 01:57 |
| persia | (note that in some cases the source package name differs from the binary package name: if `apt-cache show ${PACKAGE} | grep "^Source:" returns anything, use that instead of the binary package name | 01:58 |
| saidinesh5 | oh sure :) | 01:58 |
| persia | quadrispro is often around in this channel, and is the primary person pushing patches into Debian Multimedia: once you have a couple, I'd recommend talking to him about the best way to get them applied. | 01:58 |
| persia | Thanks! | 01:58 |
| saidinesh5 | sure :D | 01:59 |
| saidinesh5 | thank you :) | 01:59 |
| scott-work | morning abogani | 14:15 |
| abogani | scott-work: Hi Scott! | 14:16 |
| astraljava | o/ | 14:23 |
| scott-work | hi falktx | 14:49 |
| falktx | hey scott-work | 14:50 |
| falktx | scott-work: I noticed what you said about the gtk-deco theme, but I don't have the skills to make it better | 14:50 |
| falktx | I just modded the ubuntu theme... | 14:50 |
| scott-work | falktx: you mean the dark on dark window treatment? | 14:51 |
| falktx | scott-work: yes | 14:51 |
| scott-work | holstein: i'm talking to skaet right now about website access :) | 18:18 |
| scott-work | i got tired of trying to catch her on a channel and finally realized i could simply /query her :P | 18:18 |
| holstein | scott-work: w00t | 18:20 |
| holstein | yeah, i tried a /q once, but she wasnt on freenode at all | 18:20 |
| Kokito | howdy | 20:11 |
| Kokito | scott-work: you've got mail | 20:11 |
| scott-work | hi Kokito | 20:12 |
| * scott-work is looking | 20:12 | |
| astraljava | Hmm... I can't make out the difference between a query and a msg. Someone enlighten me? | 21:45 |
| scott-work | query opens new window, what most people think of as PM | 22:13 |
| scott-work | i think | 22:13 |
| astraljava | Hmm... when in irssi, /msg also opens a new 'window'. | 22:19 |
| holstein | astraljava: think of /msg as sending a message to the server | 23:41 |
| holstein | like /msg nickserv or /msg chanserv | 23:41 |
| holstein | you are asking for something from the sever via a message | 23:41 |
| holstein | /query gets you a PM with whatever nick | 23:41 |
